機能説明

The metaoffline command prevents Solaris Volume Manager from reading and writing to
the submirror that has been taken offline. While the submirror is offline,
all writes to the mirror will be kept track of (by region)
and will be written when the submirror is brought back online. The metaoffline
command can also be used to perform online backups: one submirror is
taken offline and backed up while the mirror remains accessible. (However, if
this is a two-way mirror, data redundancy is lost while one submirror
is offline.) The metaoffline command differs from the metadetach command because it does
not sever the logical association between the submirror and the mirror. To
completely remove a submirror from a mirror, use the metadetach command.

A submirror that has been taken offline will only remain offline until
the metaonline command is invoked or the system is rebooted.

When the metaonline command is used, reading from and writing to the
submirror resumes. A resync is automatically invoked to resync the regions written
while the submirror was offline. Writes are directed to the submirror during
resync. Reads, however, will come from a different submirror. Once the resync operation
completes, reads and writes are performed on that submirror. The metaonline command
is only effective on a submirror of a mirror that has been
taken offline.

The metaoffline and metaonline commands can not be used on RAID 1
volumes in application-based recovery (ABR) mode.

A submirror that has been taken offline with the metaoffline command can
only be mounted as read-only.

オプション

Root privileges are required for all of the following options except -h.

-f

Forces offlining of submirrors that have slices requiring maintenance.

-h

Displays usage message.

-ssetname

Specifies the name of the diskset on which metaoffline and metaonline will work. Using the -s option will cause the command to perform its administrative function within the specified diskset. Without this option, the command will perform its function on local metadevices.

mirror

Specifies the metadevice name of the mirror from which the submirror will be either taken offline or put online.

submirror

Specifies the metadevice name of the submirror to be either taken offline or put online.
